Instructions

  1. In a pot, add 2 tablespoons of water followed by the milk. The water helps prevent the milk from burning. Add sugar, kewra water, and the seeds of green cardamoms.
  2. Bring the milk to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the milk is reduced by half, stirring occasionally and scraping the sides of the pot. The milk will develop a yellowish color as it reduces.
  3. Add heavy cream and simmer for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and allow the rabri to cool.
  4. In a separate pot, combine sugar, water, and rose water. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let it cool.
  5. Using a cutter or small glass, cut the bread into circles, removing the edges. Heat oil in a pan and shallow-fry the bread slices on both sides until golden brown. Keep the heat at medium. For a lighter version, you can toast the bread in a toaster.
  6. Chop all the nuts and heat ghee in a pan. Roast the nuts until they are slightly browned, then remove from heat and let them cool.
  7. Dip the fried bread slices in the cooled sugar syrup for about 4-5 minutes. The longer you dip, the softer the bread will be. For a slight crispiness, dip for less time.
  8. In mini serving glasses, add about 1 tablespoon of the nut mixture at the bottom. Pour a spoonful of rabri. Carefully place 2-3 slices of fried bread on top. Add more nut mixture and finish with a drizzle of rabri. Garnish with edible silver leaf, if desired.

Notes

  • The rabri can be cooled in the fridge for a cold version of the dessert.
  • You can cut the bread into triangles or sticks if preferred.
  • For traditional Shahi Tukray, assemble the dessert in a large serving dish instead of individual glasses.
